EarthNight

About this game

Dragons have taken over the Earth!

It's up to Sydney and Stanley to stop them.



EarthNight is an illustrated procedurally generated platformer that takes place in a dystopian future just after the dragon apocalypse. Humans have been exiled to space, forced to live in orbit above the planet. But Sydney and Stanley have had enough! They’ve decided to skydive back down to the planet, taking out as many dragons as they can along the way.



Each run begins in space. You must traverse five layers of the atmosphere on the perilous journey down to Earth alternating between skydiving and running on the backs of dragons. Your path to EarthNight will always be different and riddled with danger.

Game Features

• Jump and dash your way across the backs of dragons on your way down to Earth in classic 2D side-scrolling action.



• Unlock more than 25 gameplay-altering powerups that will aid you on your journey as you slay dragons and discover secrets.



• Experience a unique run no matter how many times you play thanks to near-infinite variations of hand designed, procedurally generated levels.



• Explore five layers of the atmosphere with more than 40 enemies, more than 15 unique dragons and hundreds of scraps and items, all brought to life by artist Mattahan, who meticulously painted each of EarthNight’s 10,000+ frames of art and animation.



• Enjoy an original, exciting soundtrack intertwined into gameplay, including more than 20 songs written and performed by chiptune musician Chipocrite.

  EarthNight 2.0 is Here!

  Outfit Shelf Dr. Dave the Appraiser has upgraded the ship to produce over 40 different outfits for Stanley & Sydney that can be synthesized using water, dragon eggs and parts you collect on your journey. There are also some special outfits that can only be unlocked by completing epic goals. The new outfits include over 400 frames of hand painted animation for each character including their lobby animations, poses and death screens. Dark Mode In the options menu is a new dark mode for EarthNight that changes the appearance of the exterior and interior of the ship. A New Chipocrite Track! Chipocrite has composed and recorded a new original song as a variant for World 1. This includes boss music with both full band and chip tune versions. We hope you enjoy some more musical variety in the Thermosphere. Performance & Crashes We’ve tinkered under the hood a lot to decrease active memory by over 20%! We’ve improved performance across all devices but especially lower end devices and have hopefully solved the persistent issue of the game crashing when reaching the planet’s surface on lower end devices. We believe many more computers should be able to enjoy EarthNight to the fullest now. Minor improvements and bug fixes.
